Chapter 68:
I continued to stare at Lucretius. He was deep in his sleep.
He couldn’t hear , so I said to him quietly, “That’s what you get for being stupid!”
There was no answer as I expected. I felt relieved and confident.
I continued spitefully, “You were talking so nonsense about owning my breath, and here you are! You got this cold from !”
He still didn’t say anything. He was fast asleep.
I loved this! This was so fun!
I continued, “You are so weak! You look sicker than I was! Such a wimp! Hahaha!”
“...”
“...”
Silence fell. I felt a little silly talking to myself.
Suddenly, I felt embarrassed. My face beca red. I decided I’ve said enough.
It was ti to take care of him. That’s what I promised to do to Samantha.
I stood up quickly.
What should I do...
Oh! dicine!
“Yes. I need to give him his dicine.”
As I murmured, I rembered he just took his dicine and fell asleep.
“... Then dinner...”
It was past dinner ti though. He probably already had a al before he took the dication.
“Uhm... What should I do?”
I sounded idiotic even to myself. Then suddenly, I noticed Lucretius was sweating. His forehead was wet.
Yes! This was it!
When I was sick, I felt awful sweating. My body felt wet and sticky.
I felt silly, but I needed to call Samantha back.
“Please get a towel and water. Uhm... Also another shirt for him.”
“Yes, your highness.”
Thankfully, Samantha didn’t ask why and what they were for. She quietly brought the items and left.
I felt nervous. I didn’t know why.
I had to do this.
I can do this!
I wet the towel in warm water and wiped his sweaty forehead. I tried my best to cool him down. Perhaps it was my imagination, but he looked much better afterward.
Good! I continued down to clean his neck.
Even his neck was long and sexy.
“...”
I started to get tense.
As I got lower, I noticed his chest.
His hard wide chest.
He must have sweated a lot because his shirt was soaking wet. It was practically see-through by now.
Yes, he needed to change. Good thing Samantha brought a new dry shirt.
However, to change him...
I needed to take his wet shirt off first.
I stared at his chest hard.
T, this was necessary. He was a patient, and I was only trying to take care of him.
I reminded myself and grabbed his shirt with trembling hands.
As I was about to pull it, his hands grabbed my wrists and pulled hard. I lost my balance and fell on to the bed.
“Huh?”
I felt his bare skin against mine. It was shocking.
When I slowly opened my eyes, his face was above mine, looking down at .
His green eyes t mine. He was smiling knowingly and said to , “You are so passionate and aggressive.”
What?
“Pardon?!”
He didn’t seem to care that I was in shock. He continued to grin at happily.
I was laying on my back and he was on top of . I tried to move, but it was no use.
In this dimly lit room, I was laying on the bed with a man who was wet and half naked.
T, this was... too dangerous!
We have spent a lot of ti together, but never like this.
He smirked and played with my hair as he whispered, “So it looks like you finally want now. You practically leaped into my bed.”
I jumped and replied, “What the hell are you talking about! I didn’t jump into anything. You are the one who pulled into your bed!”
“Sa thing.”
They weren’t the sa thing! Not at all!
“Stop being silly!”
I tried to move my arms, but it was useless. I knew he had full control over this situation. So instead of trying to escape, I turned my face away from him.
“...”
He responded imdiately, “Hmm, are you pouting?”
“...”
I remained quiet to make my point, but instead of letting go, he laughed.
How annoying!
I was about to say sothing when he loosened his grip.
“Well, if you insist.”
“...”
I felt embarrassed as he let go this easily. I slowly got up.
But... This was worse! My body beca even closer to his half-naked chest.
T, this was even more dangerous!
When I flinched and tried to back away, he grabbed my wrist again.
“L, let go!”
“If you get any farther away, I won’t be able to see your face very well. It must be the fever; my eyes feel a bit blurry right now.”
I felt hot again. Even my brain felt like it was in an oven. This was too much! This was too dangerous!
I shook my head.
“It looks like you are all better now, so I’ll get going!”
“Don’t leave.”
I couldn’t think straight.
Lucretius was one sexy man, to begin with, even when fully clothed. His eyes, his face, and his smile all scread sensuality.
Lisbeth fell in love with him with only a single dance.
Right now, this gorgeous man was half naked. He was wet and slightly flushed, which made him even sexier!
My body was about to explode. I wasn’t thinking when I blurted out.
“This is too dangerous!”
“Danger? What’s so dangerous? I would never harm you.”
He seed confused. His facial expression was so innocent, it surprised . I blurted out again.
“No! I an! ... ! You are in danger from !!”
“...”
“...”
... What was wrong with ?
The silence was awkward. I prayed he would faint from his illness. Perhaps he would forget this whole thing!
Of course, this didn’t happen. Lucretius asked in confusion, “Hmm? I don’t understand what you an. Are you saying you might harm , like poison ? If you do that, it wouldn’t benefit you in any way. In fact, it would be bad for you.”
“...”
Gosh! Just stop! He was making sound like an idiot!
He continued, “I know you aren’t a stupid woman, so...”
Just stop!
I twisted my body to get my wrist out from his grip, but it didn’t work. I could never win against him in strength.
I replied to him, “That’s right. I am a dangerous woman, so let go...!”
I couldn’t even finish my sentence. He pulled my wrist and I was laying on my back again. Before I knew what was happening, I was staring at the ceiling.
He was on top of again!
Stop! Don’t!
He said to , “A dangerous woman needs a dangerous man. Don’t I look like a dangerous man to you?”
Without thinking, I replied to him, “I know you are the most dangerous man in this kingdom.”
What was wrong with ! I should have stayed quiet!
Lucretius’s eyes narrowed as he grinned.
“It’s good to hear that you know.” Before his lips touched mine, he laughed which sounded like a growl. He whispered to , “And you are the most dangerous woman in this kingdom.”
Then... the long kiss began.
I must have lost my mind. Without thinking, my hands moved to hug his arms and shoulders. Our lips and tongue t.
I was panting by the ti it ended.
“...”
Lucretius smiled smoothly as he tapped my tight corset. My body tensed imdiately. I knew he could feel my reaction too.
N, no! Stop!
The scary thing was if he tried tonight, I knew I would give in. My brain knew better, but my body wanted what he wanted too!
I needed to be strong!
He said to slowly, “I would love to finally do this...”
